I’d prefer a .50 cal. machine gun, myself.

I used to think that a .50 cal was cool but my son used an M-249 in Iraq and says its better (250 clip box, no link belt). Of course the Army is phasing the 249 out for something else, and Gates is cutting out the A-10 Warthogs, both acts of sheer stupidity.

But hey, the Messiah is in charge and all is well in the world, his world, wherever that is.

I’d prefer a .50 cal. machine gun, myself.

That would be useful, but I would prefer a 25 mm Bushmaster cannon. That way they could really reach out and sink the pirates' boats, maybe even their mother ships.

a phalanx system would be my favorite.
